　　I met him first on a summer day in 1995．I 1 into his ugly small shop to have my  2 repaired．It wasn’t much of a job, so I waited while he did it．He greeted me with a sweet smile．“You are new in this place, aren’t you? ”

　　I said I 3 ．I had moved into this street only a week  4 ．

　　“This is a fine place, ” he said．I repaired there with my shoes off, looking around as he got ready to make repairs．He looked  5 at the leather．It was worn through because I had  6 to have the repair job done．I grew  7 impatient, for I was rushing to meet a friend．“Please  8 ,” I begged．

　　He looked at me  9 his glasses．“We won’t be long．I must do a good job．You see, I have a tradition to live up to．”

　　A tradition? In this ugly small shop that wasn’t any different from so many other shops on the side streets of New York ?

　　He must have felt my surprise,  10 he smiled as he went on．“Yes, my father was a good shoemaker．He always  11 me, ‘Son, do the best job on every shoe that comes into the shop, and be proud of your fine work．Do that  12 , and you’ll have both happiness and money enough to live on．’”

　　As he  13 me the finished shoes, he said , “These will  14 a long time．”

　　I left in a hurry．My friend would be waiting for me impatiently．

　　　　That evening I  15 the shop．There he was．When he saw me, he waved and smiled．This was the beginning of our friendship that came to mean more and more to me as time passed．
